Britain's 30 best pubs for weekend walks

The ‘Thinking and Drinking’ pub, where Watson and Crick discussed DNA, is a good base for a walk. Turn right out of the front door on to Benet Street, then right again on to King’s Parade. Continue past the Wren’s soaring King’s College Chapel and on down the road, which becomes (after a wiggle) Trinity Street. Detour in to gawp at Trinity’s Great Court (of Chariots of Fire fame), then opposite St John’s turn sharp right on to Bridge Street. This becomes Sidney Street, and just past Sidney Sussex turn right on to Market Street, which takes you back to King’s Parade. AB
